"Oh thank you Dimitre! Thank you so much!" She hugged Lysandra tightly. "I have missed you since you were a baby twenty years ago, Lysandra! Not once did I or your father give up on you, even though you were taken at such a young age!" She held Lysandra at arms length. "Oh, if your father were alive today...he'd say you've become a wonderful young woman..."

Rosaline looked at Dimitre. "Thank you for bringing her to me, dear." She looked at Lysandra. "You really have become a wonderful-looking woman...you look like I did when I was your age...minus a bunch of needle marks and tubes in some rather uncomfortable places..." She chuckled.

She backed away from Lysandra. "I can die a happy mother now." She came over to Dimitre, hugging him tight and shocking him a little. "I love you two so very much. Let me make a dinner for all of us, and you can take some home to Astraria~." She hurried off to the kitchen, leaving Dimitre alone with Lysandra.
